Historic Bridge Walks - Bridges over the Tees

This leaflet provides an insight into the unusual, impressive and noteworthy structures across the River Tees.

Today the River Tees is a port of some importance but this was not always so. Originally, it offered few, if any, natural advantages. As the Tees is set in a low lying landscape, a number of unusual bridges had to be built to overcome the conflict between land and water-based transport.

Bridges include:

Transporter Bridge

Newport Bridge

Billingham Branch Bridge

A19 Tees Viaduct

Tees Barrage Bridge

Infi nity Bridge

Princess of Wales Bridge

Victoria Bridge

Tees Rail Bridge

A66 Surtees Bridge

Jubilee Bridge

Yarm Masonry Bridge & Yarm Viaduct
